Drone-based mapping of surging glaciers in Rindersbukta, Svalbard

DOI

This database contains drone-based mapping data of three surging glaciers in Rindersbukta, Svalbard, Norway. The dataset was generated using a structure-from-motion (SfM) method using drone-based imagery. The data was processed with Agisoft Metashape and the processed data consists of digital elevation models (DEMs) in georeferenced .TIF file format, orthomosaic maps in georeferenced .TIF, .JPG, and .PNG file format, and textured 3D models in .STL and .OBJ/.MTL/.JPG file format. In addition, a process report in archived .PDF file format is included for each dataset. Mapping was conducted with a DJI Mavic 2 Pro Enterprise. The mapping area covers the crevassed glacier fronts. Data collection was conducted during Spring 2022 (19-23.04.2022), Spring 2023 (23-24.03.2023), and Spring 2024 (10.03.2024). The following glaciers are mapped: Scheelebreen (2022, 2023), Vallåkrabreen (2022, 2023, 2024), and Paulabreen (2022). For Vallåkrabreen, two different datasets are available, where the "bulge" datasets only contains the area of the surge buldge, whereas the other dataset contains the entire glacier area.

(19-23.04.2022), Spring 2023 (23-24.03.2023), and Spring 2024 (10.03.2024). The following glaciers are mapped: Scheelebreen (2022, 2023), Vallåkrabreen (2022, 2023, 2024), and Paulabreen (2022).
